Fuck yeah he does. Wasn't he one of the first people to grow cubensis indoors? I could be way off there but he did write one of the firsts teks on how to do it.

Terence McKenna said:
Ultimately what we're touching is the invisible, all-pervasive Intelligence that surrounds us and penetrates us. It is grooming us to be able to tolerate its splendor. It can't just reveal itself openly because we would be forfeited; we'd never know what hit us.
Strange, I've been listening to tons of McKenna lectures over the past couple weeks thanks to a certain Shroomery member.
After listening to tons of lectures by Ram Dass, Adyashanti and Eckhart Tolle in the past few months I am now thoroughly confused, which is great.
Should we work to obtain these states autonomously? Or is the use of plants a perfectly natural and necessary method?
I'm inclined to side with Terence, we simply don't have time for the long straight path...

RIP Terence you still live on in everyone and inspire us all to do what's right and good for our species. Infinite love is the only truth everything else is just an illusion.

Thats not McKenna, that's Alan Watts talking about DMT. I think.

Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

 My boob!
My brain is currently leaking out of my ear in an attempt to escape from all the media bullshit I've had to listen to at work today.

Thanks for posting that, MM! I had been trying to find it for a while, ever since I saw it on Google videos but it was a broken link! It's great...I love the waiter.

“Strengthened by contemplation and study,
I will not fear my passions like a coward.
My body I will give to pleasures,
to diversions that I’ve dreamed of,
to the most daring erotic desires,
to the lustful impulses of my blood, without
any fear at all, for whenever I will—
and I will have the will, strengthened
as I’ll be with contemplation and study—
at the crucial moments I’ll recover
my spirit as was before: ascetic.”
